The Diary of John Winchester
Name: Afreet
Classification: demon
Description: large, humanoid shaped, horns, fangs, no specific color attributed to demon
Lore Reference: At first believed to be of a class of what the Arabs refer to as Gin, or the family class of Genies. An afreet to them is a mid-sized dijinn, between imps and jinn. Arabs believed that afreets were responsible for all the things they couldn’t see that happened at night.
Upon further research, Sam surmised that the afreets might have been cross-culturally introduced. This idea led him to research other cultures and discovered that small clans in North Africa worshipped a demon known as an efreet. One legend went that a tribe shaman was able to actually raise an efreet, which immediately began to wreak havoc on the tribe, slaughtering many before the efreet stumbled into the shaman’s hut. The efreet spilled upon itself blessed oil that the shaman used for anointing children on their first naming day. Fearing that the efreet would rise again, the warriors cut out the beast’s heart and the efreet disintegrated and the shaman never raised another.
Encountered At: Kisatchie, Louisiana
Specific Attacks: fangs, claws, horns
Kill By: weapons anointed with blessed oil, cut out heart and destroy
Personal Notes: This type of creature seems dangerous in that it possesses more intelligence than the average spirit. It has shown the ability to mimic other creatures, some natural, some supernatural. The only give away that we could find was that the larger the afreet grew, the more rapacious its hunger became.
We surmised that it must have been raised, but probably turned on the one who raised it.
Entry: Hot Springs Village, AR
